1997-1998 Minnesota-Wisconsin Reciprocity Program Data

A payment of $2,075,860 was made to Minnesota by the State of Wisconsin in 1997-98. Changes to
the agreement between Minnesota and Wisconsin approved by the Joint Finance Committee in August of
1997 that went into effect July 1, 1998, will reverse this trend. The $2,075,860 payment made in 1997-98
was offset by tuition payments made that same year by Minnesota students. The amount paid to UW
institutions by Minnesota students and remitted to the State's General Fund was $4,192,017 in 1997-98.
